- If someone says, “I love God,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see?
- And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
- We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.
God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. - And he has given us this command: Those who love God must also love their fellow believers.
- But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
- Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
- No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
- May God give you more and more mercy, peace, and love.
- Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God’s law.
- If you love me, obey my commandments.
- Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you.
- We love each other because he loved us first.
- Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other.
- Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love.
- Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.
- And do everything with love.
- So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other.
- Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins.
- When you obey my commandments, you remain in my love, just as I obey my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.
- For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.
- Hatred stirs up quarrels,
but love makes up for all offenses. - Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good.
- Understand, therefore, that the Lord your God is indeed God. He is the faithful God who keeps his covenant for a thousand generations and lavishes his unfailing love on those who love him and obey his commands.
- The man answered, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind.’ And, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
- Jesus replied, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.”
A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all. Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are?Next verse!With image
